OAS - Operator algebras: subfactors and their applications

Herz-Schur multipliers of a locally compact group, introduced by Haagerup and de Canniere in 1985, have been instrumental in operator algebra theory in a variety of contexts, in particular in the study of approximation properties of group operator algebras. They can be viewed as the invariant part of the Schur multipliers – a class of maps on B(H) with another long list of applications, e.g. in perturbation theory of linear operators. In this talk, which is based on a joint work with A. McKee and L. Turowska, I will introduce operator-valued Schur and Herz-Schur multipliers of arbitrary locally compact groups. The latter give rise to natural maps on C*- and von Neumann algebra crossed products. I will present a characterisation of operator-valued Herz-Schur multipliers as the invariant part of the operator-valued Schur multipliers, and will discuss various special cases which highlight the generality of this class of maps and their potential usefulness in subsequent research.
